| Frog's home |
My colleague just completed a fun Frog and Toad Unit in her Pre-K 4 class. What I love about the unit is that there were lots of opportunities for retelling the Frog and Toad stories with various fun props (including both frog and toad cardboard homes).
 |
| That's Frog and Toad in a tree (that the kids made by sponge painting). |
 |
| The kids added fun hats to their "people." |
 |
| Kites are attached to their "hands" and then hung from the ceiling. |
 |
| Each child sewed a button on this sweater after reading "The Lost Button." |
 |
| Toad's house, complete with a mailbox so they could mail letters to Toad. |
Arnold Lobel has been our Author of the Week for two weeks now. My students and I LOVE the Frog & Toad books. What's not to like about them? I love the little settings for kids to play and retell the stories. I especially liked the idea of having the kids sew a button on a sweater for the story The Button. Thanks for sharing your great ideas!!
